Thanks are due to Mr. J P. Doncaster of the British Museum (Nat. Hist.) and to Mr. D. Hille Ris Lambers of Bennekom for information about species related to those described here, to Dr. H. K. Munro of Pretoria for the opportunity to study about thirty aphid samples from South Africa which included one species also found in East Africa and here described as new, and to Mr. B. Verdcourt of the East African Herbarium for determining many host plants. This work was done while the author was in possession of a Colonial Research Fellowship.
